I'm fighting the breeze as it tousles' my hair. My fingers are rapiers, they're cutting the cold The wind carries lances and they're fighting back. The glowing sun is icy. Brightens up the morning sky. Still so cold, I am ready to cry. Inhaling the cold and my lungs feel like cracking. Deceit fills the sun loaded skies. The smart bite of frostbite, still waters my eyes. Flowers, fancy flowers. Annually sparkle the beds. They're no longer sleeping. Springtime's weak sunshine, gives them their life. Naughty husband pinches a few to give to his wife. The children know mother's day is on the way. I remember stealing daffodils from the roadway outside my house. To give to my mother when I was a mouse. Could never steal flowers now. It's a criminal offense. They smile so very beautifully. Behind a gilded fence. (c) Livvi
